Abstract
This article presents the slightly revised English translation of the first edition, originally published in 2007 in Hebrew, of two new leaves of the Geniza manuscript C of the Hebrew version of Ben Sira. With those two new leaves, from a nonconsecutive bifolio, we now have eight leaves from four continuous bifolios of the manuscript. The second new leaf contains the first Hebrew evidence for verses ranging between Sir 20:30 and 25:7.
Primary Texts: Apocrypha and Pseudepigrapha
